I'd appreciate if someone else could work on this. I'm trying to
finish up my work on TTY menus, which is dragging for more than a year
now.
In a nutshell, srcdir is now guaranteed to be in /d/foo/bar format,
and should be edited into d:/foo/bar when it is placed in
src/epaths.h. The job is to remove anything from top-level
Makefile.in that is required for file names in format other than
/d/foo/bar, and still allow using %emacs_dir% in
'--enable-locallisppath=PATH' option to configure. So I think
msys_to_w32 should stay intact, but msys_lisppath_to_w32 could be
simplified.
